Who is going to play left-back?

He definitely needs competition, an idle clichy isn't the best on the eye... However, i'd wager that Gael is probably one of the fittest players at the club, along with dinho. A little coaching and he could be the surprise package in peps team!!
im fit, am left footed and understand the basics of a fullback. can you or your kid pass my details onto the club please mate. Could do with a career change.

Thanks
 
Why do some people keep saying Fernandinho? why would we play our best midfielder by far at left back. Hopefully Kolarov will leave and someone like Rodriguez will join. I like Clichy but he isn't good enough to be first choice.
 
Clichy will be first choice.

Bruno Peres second - he can play either.

Angelino will probably play third choice. I known that terrifies some people but you're going to have to get used to youngsters playing before everyone thinks they are ready.

Zinchenko can play there, although he seems to not like it.

Then we could go 3 at the back if necessary.


People are going to have to get used to a smaller squad. You don't bring through 30 players in 7 seasons by having 2 senior players in every position.

Same goes for striker. We aren't going to have three.
 
I have always said LB is the hardest position to fill. We are not the only club struggling to find one.
I think you have to assess what we have against what is available and on the basis Clichy is a decent player. He is a decent age and will have just had a full summer of rest. I think he will be fine. However Kolarov is a liability and must be sold. Angelino looked a long way off to me when playing for NYC, he was good going forward but was unconvincing defensively (in the MLS!).
